When you are ready to start that PROFINET automation project, you will find guidelines offering detailed assistance. There are about 500 pages of documentation here. Not all of it will apply to your project, but you will be glad to explore the detail for the parts that are part of your project:

This 192-page guideline covers plant design, topology, selection of components, selection of transmission medium, selection of connectors, communication relations, and estimate of data volumes to be transmitted. Also included is the PROFINET Load Calculation Tool.

There is no substitute for in-person instruction with hands-on training. We offer fee-based, week-long Certified Network Engineer classes in Johnson City, TN. This comprehensive class will get you into the bits and bytes of PROFINET. We are sometimes able to offer these at a user site if the number of students warrants.
